During the investigation into the Aug. 14, 2003, Mid-West/Northeast blackout, it became obvious that we needed higher-resolution time synchronized data for event analyses. Since then, the widespread production use of synchrophasors has been providing deeper insights for both post-event analyses and into the operation and control of the grid. Synchrophasors are precise grid measurements available from monitors called phasor measurement units (PMUs).

In today’s fast-paced, digital world, businesses must constantly innovate to satisfy customer demand and stay ahead of competitors. Luckily, there’s no shortage of new technologies for enterprise executives and managers to leverage. Almost every day it seems a new digital trend is touted as the next must-have, and businesses feel perpetual pressure to capitalize on the latest “tech du jour” so they don’t risk getting left behind. However, it’s best to proceed with a critical eye, and make sure policies and procedures are in place to implement new tech investments strategically.

As Bitcoin has seen a steady plunge in value since the start of 2018, other cryptocurrencies have seen downward trajectories as well. However, in the absence of the high volatility that accompanies the Bitcoin market, cryptocurrencies like Ethereum have seen lighter losses and investor faith is still not quite shaken. Now, a new pilot project by the United Nations International Children’s Emergency Fund, or UNICEF, is helping Ethereum find new value in humanitarian aid and development scenarios.

It seems like innovation just can’t leave designers alone. At first, it was the computer revolution; As Adrian Shaughnessy put it, the introduction of Macintosh meant “no more mechanical artwork, no more paste-up, no more typesetters, no more expensive retouchers” for designers. The second major shock to the field was the explosion of the Internet. No longer designers had the comfort of fixed-size, one-format print publishing. With most businesses looking to add a website to their public image, designers now had to make sure their artwork would look good on all possible screen ratios and sizes.

For those unfamiliar, blockchain is the underlying technology of bitcoin and cryptocurrencies that enables open, anonymous and secure transactions. As traditional businesses and enterprises were introduced to blockchain, however, their visions for application have ranged far and wide—as has the hyperbole of its promise. Now, before we go any further, I have to get something out of way: Blockchain is not a cure-all. It will not revolutionize every facet of human life. Now that that’s covered, let’s focus on how the hype came to be and how communicators should really be talking about it.

The new report by the Telecoms and Computing Market Reports has been published today. It provides updated in 2018 year analysis of telecoms and computing industries. Blockchains are a new data structure that is secure, cryptography-based, and distributed across a network. The technology supports cryptocurrencies such as Bitcoin, and the transfer of any data or digital asset.

Blockchain technology has become mainstream. It’s being hailed as the defining technology of the decade by industry experts, and has led to the cryptocurrency craze that’s taking the financial sector by storm. But like the advent of the Internet in the 90s, there’s much more to the power of blockchain than we currently know. Before we go forward to understand the importance of blockchain, for investors, let’s go back in time, to 1994.

Whether you are a complete novice or a bloodied veteran, Arduino could well be the greatest gift to humanity since the discovery of fire.
